COMMENT

Hankel transform {t(n)} of {a(n)} is given by t(n) = Det[{a(1), a(2), ..., a(n)}, {a(2), a(3), ..., a(n+1)}, ..., {a(n), a(n+1), ..., a(2n-1)}].

The bisections of this sequence appear to be the binomial transform of the Catalan numbers, A007317. If that is true then the g.f. for this sequence is (1/(2*x))*( 1 + x - (1-x)^(-1)*(1-x^2)^(1/2)*(1-5*x^2)^(1/2)), which occurs in the Cyvin et al. reference.
